ಜ್ಞಾನದ ಬಲದಿಂದ ಅಜ್ಞಾನದ ಕೇಡು ನೋಡಯ್ಯ ಜ್ಯೋತಿಯ ಬಲದಿಂದ ತಮಂಧದ ಕೇಡು ನೋಡಯ್ಯ. ಸತ್ಯದ ಬಲದಿಂದ ಅಸತ್ಯದ ಕೇಡು ನೋಡಯ್ಯ. ಪರುಷದ ಬಲದಿಂದ ಅವಲೋಹದ ಕೇಡು ನೋಡಯ್ಯ. ಕೂಡಲ ಸಂಗನ ಶರಣರ ಅನುಭಾವದ ಬಲದಿಂದ ಎನ್ನ ಭವದ ಕೇಡು ನೋಡಯ್ಯ! (ಸಮಗ್ರ ವಚನ ಸಂಪುಟ #842)
Transcending ignorance with knowledge
Basava Samiti’s initiative to promote STEM objectives of the Government.
Basava Samiti’s Learn2Grow Program, a volunteer-driven educational movement, celebrated its success stories on March 16, 2024, at Brisbane Square Library. The program, known for its innovative approach to education and community engagement, has been making significant strides across Australia and New Zealand. The recent Data visualization project presentation in Brisbane marked a celebration of achievements, skill development, and transformative experiences. Learn2Grow stands out for its commitment to inclusivity and empowerment, breaking down financial barriers to education. It fosters an environment where ideas flourish and community challenges are addressed, all while instilling values of courage, honesty, and integrity inspired by Guru Basava’s teachings. The program exemplifies that education extends beyond classrooms, offering an immersive experience that unleashes the potential of its participants.
- Dāsōha (ದಾಸೋಹಾ): This principle involves experts sharing their knowledge selflessly to uplift learners with kindness and gratitude. It’s about giving back to the community and fostering a culture of generosity and mentorship.
- Kāyakavē kailāsa (ಕಾಯಕವೇ ಕೈಲಾಸ): This concept translates to ‘Work is Worship’. It encourages learners to find fulfillment and ‘heaven’ through dedicated work and service, especially when addressing community problems with the high-tech platforms provided by the charity.
Learn2Grow has quickly become more than just an educational platform; it’s a transformative journey for those passionate about learning but financially constrained. With a hands-on learning philosophy, the program offers certified training in various technologies, including Microsoft, Google Analytics, Tableau, and Graphic Design. The focus is not just on skill acquisition but on applying those skills to contribute to community-wide initiatives.
Open data projects play a crucial role in Learn2Grow’s strategy to tackle real-world community challenges. By promoting data transparency, the program empowers volunteers to use their skills to make a meaningful impact on local issues. Learn2Grow stands as a beacon of how education and open data can pave the way for community improvement and empowerment.
For those interested in participating and witnessing the impact of this initiative, registration for the upcoming event is available via email.
These values foster a nurturing environment where education and community service go hand in hand, leading to personal growth and societal improvement. The Learn2Grow Program embodies these ideals, providing a platform for individuals to learn, grow, and contribute to the community, reflecting the essence of teachings.
